Abstract

An electric beverage maker 2 comprises a lower, water boiling vessel 4, a funnel 8 extending into the lower vessel 4 and having an upper compartment 30 for receiving a beverage, and an upper vessel 6 mounted over said funnel 8 to receive water which has passed up said funnel 8 through said compartment 30, and from which the beverage is dispensed. The lower vessel 4 is formed with an opening 36 in its lower region, which is closed by a thick film electric heater 40. The heater 40 is controlled by a control 42 which operates to disable the heater until such time as the control is reset manually by a user.
